In It For The Crack, The Crackpet Show Update

This is most likely pissing in the wind when I write updates on The Crackpet Show as all the patch notes show up on your downloads page, should you have the game installed. However, I like this game and would like to see it get more attention.

Even if nobody is listening to this particular beat.

The Crackpet Show from Vixa Games is an Early Access top-down shooter in the mould of Smash TV, jumbled up with some Happy Tree Friends illustrations. The goal is to get through a procedurally generated arena, win over lots of fans, and makes tons of money in the process.

During each run, there will be options to buff out your arsenal like a Kardashian and swap out your guns, specials, and invest in additional buffs that give more rewards. In the latest update, we have a new guardian, perks and items, the turret launcher, a new stage type and a brand new character: panda.

Here’s an older update trailer that gives an indicator on gameplay:

My write-ups on The Crackpet Show don’t get much attention, but if you’ve stumbled upon this and are on the fence, do a teeny bit more research and decide. It’s currently available in Early Access on Steam.
